Abstract
Genetics plays a role in the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), which poses serious risks to pregnant women and their children. Several studies have demonstrated a link between GDM susceptibility and rs13266634 C/T polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene and rs1111875 C/T and rs5015480 C/T, which are located near the linkage disequilibrium block containing the IDE, HHEX, and KIF11 genes. However, the results are conflicting. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association between susceptibility to GDM and HHEX and SLC30A8 gene polymorphisms. PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, and SCOPUS were used to search for research articles. The quality of the selected literature was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. A meta-analysis was performed using Stata 15.1. Allelic, dominant, recessive, homozygote, and heterozygote models were used for the analysis. Nine articles with 15 studies were included. (1) Four studies about HHEX rs1111875 showed that the C allele was associated with the susceptibility to GDM; (2) three studies on HHEX rs5015480 indicated that the C allele in rs5015480 was significantly associated with GDM; (3) eight studies about SLC30A8 rs13266634 showed that the C allele was significantly associated with the susceptibility to GDM; and (4) a subgroup analysis showed that the rs5015480 polymorphism in HHEX and rs13266634 polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene were associated with GDM susceptibility in Asians. The meta-analysis provided evidence that the C allele in rs1111875 and rs5015480 in HHEX and rs13266634 in SLC30A8 can increase the risk of GDM.PROSPERO registration number CRD42022342280.

Noncoding RNA Res 2023; 8:426-450. [PMID: 37324526 PMCID: PMC10265490 DOI: 10.1016/j.ncrna.2023.04.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background It is becoming more and more apparent that Grave's Ophthalmopathy (GO) pathogenesis may be aided by epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation modifications, histone tail covalent modifications, and non-coding RNA (ncRNA)-based epigenetic processes. In the present study, we aimed to focus more on the miRNAs rather than lncRNAs due to lack of investigations on these non-coding RNAs and their role in GO's pathogenesis. Methods A six-stage methodology framework and the PRISMA recommendation were used to conduct this scoping review. A comprehensive search was conducted across seven databases to discover relevant papers published until February 2022. The data extraction separately, and quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted. Results A total of 20 articles were found to meet inclusion criteria. According to the results, ncRNA were involved in the regulation of inflammation (miR-146a, LPAL2/miR-1287-5p axis, LINC01820:13/hsa miR-27b-3p axis, and ENST00000499452/hsa-miR-27a-3p axis), regulation of T cell functions (miR-146a/miR-183/miR-96), regulation of glycosaminoglycan aggregation and fibrosis (miR-146a/miR-21), glucocorticoid sensitivity (miR-224-5p), lipid accumulation and adipogenesis (miR-27a/miR-27b/miR-130a), oxidative stress and angiogenesis (miR-199a), and orbital fibroblast proliferation (miR-21/miR-146a/miR-155). Eleven miRNAs (miR-146a/miR-224-5p/miR-Let7d-5p/miR-96-5p/miR-301a-3p/miR-21-5p) were also indicated to have the capacity to be used as biomarkers. Conclusions Regardless of the fact that there is significant documentation of ncRNA-mediated epigenetic dysfunction in GO, additional study is needed to thoroughly comprehend the epigenetic connections concerned in disease pathogenesis, paving the way for novel diagnostic and prognostic tools for epigenetic therapies among the patients.

Abstract
Diabetes is the most prevalent metabolic disturbance disease and has been regarded globally as one of the principal causes of mortality. Diabetes is accompanied by several macrovascular complications, including stroke, coronary artery disease (CAD), and cardiomyopathy as a consequence of atherosclerosis. The onset of type 2 diabetes is closely related to insulin resistance (IR). miRNAs have been linked to various metabolic processes, including glucose homeostasis, regulation of lipid metabolism, gluconeogenesis, adipogenesis, glucose transporter type 4 expression, insulin sensitivity, and signaling. Consequently, miRNA dysregulation mediates IR in some target organs, comprising liver, muscle, and adipose tissue. Moreover, miRNAs are crucial in developing diabetes and its associated macrovascular complications through their roles in several signaling pathways implicated in inflammation, apoptosis, cellular survival and migration, the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, neurogenesis, angiogenesis, autophagy, oxidative stress, cardiac remodeling, and fibrosis. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to clarify the role of miRNAs in hepatic, muscle, and adipose tissue IR and explain their roles in the pathogenesis of macrovascular diabetic complications, including stroke, CAD, and cardiomyopathy. Also, explain their roles in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Besides, this review discusses the latest updates on the alteration of miRNA expression in diabetic macrovascular complications.

Abstract
Due to the central role in insulin secretion, the potassium inwardly-rectifying channel subfamily J member 11 (KCNJ11) gene is one of the essential genes for type 2 diabetes (T2D) predisposition. However, the relevance of this gene to T2D development is not consistent among diverse populations. In the current study, we aim to capture the possible association of common KCNJ11 variants across Iranian adults, followed by a meta-analysis. We found that the tested variants of KCNJ11 have not contributed to T2D incidence in Iranian adults, consistent with similar insulin secretion levels among individuals with different genotypes. The integration of our results with 72 eligible published case-control studies (41,372 cases and 47,570 controls) as a meta-analysis demonstrated rs5219 and rs5215 are significantly associated with the increased T2D susceptibility under different genetic models. Nevertheless, the stratified analysis according to ethnicity showed rs5219 is involved in the T2D risk among disparate populations, including American, East Asian, European, and Greater Middle Eastern, but not South Asian. Additionally, the meta-regression analysis demonstrated that the sample size of both case and control groups was significantly associated with the magnitude of pooled genetic effect size. The present study can expand our knowledge about the KCNJ11 common variant's contributions to T2D incidence, which is valuable for designing SNP-based panels for potential clinical applications in precision medicine. It also highlights the importance of similar sample sizes for avoiding high heterogeneity and conducting a more precise meta-analysis.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern involving roughly one-tenth of developed countries' populations. The flavin-containing dimethylaniline monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a toxin in CKD sufferers. This preliminary study aims to evaluate the association between coding region variations of FMO3, rs2266782G/A (E158K), rs2266780A/G (E308G), and rs1736557G/A (V257M), and the susceptibility to CKD. Methods A total of 356 participants were enrolled, including 157 patients diagnosed with CKD and 199 age-matched healthy individuals. Genotyping of FMO3 gene variations was performed via PCR-RFLP and ARMS-PCR methods. Results Our findings revealed a significant association between rs2266780A/G and rs1736557G/A and CKD under different genetic models. Compared to the GGG haplotype of rs2266782/rs1736557/rs2266780, the GAG, GAA, AAG, and AAA haplotype combinations conferred an increased risk of CKD in our population. Interaction analysis revealed that some genotype combinations, including GA/AA/AA, AA/AA/AA, GA/AA/GA, and GG/AG/AA, dramatically increased CKD risk in the Iranian population. No correlation was found between FMO3 polymorphisms and CKD stages. Discussion These observations highlight the potential impact of coding variants of the FMO3 gene on the onset of CKD. Further investigations into expanded populations and diverse races are needed to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Background Lipid metabolism disorder commonly happens in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which may be linked to genetic variants of lipid metabolism-related genes. However, few studies have explored the relationship between lipid metabolism-related gene polymorphism and serum lipid profile in aging subjects with T2DM. The present study was designed to explore the impact of genetic polymorphism of cluster determinant 36 (CD36) (rs1049673, rs1054516, rs2151916), scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1) (rs5888), and major facilitator superfamily domain containing the 2a (MFSD2A) (rs12083239, rs4233508, rs12072037) on the relationship between circulating lipids in aging subjects with T2DM. Methods 205 T2DM patients and 205 age and gender matched control subjects were recruited. Information on demographic characteristics was collected by using a self-administered questionnaire. Fasting venous blood samples were taken for lipid-related gene genotyping and serum lipid profile measurement. The Chi-square test was used to compare percentage differences and to calculate P-value for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Logistic regression and multiple linear regression were used to explore the risk or correlation between variables, and general linear model (GLM) was used to compare the means of serum lipids between the groups. Results In T2DM group, CD36 rs1054516 and MFSD2A rs12072037 were correlated with serum TC level. In control group, CD36 rs1049673 was correlated with serum HDL-C level. Meanwhile, T2DM subjects with MFSD2A rs12083239 (CG), MFSD2A rs4233508 (TT), and MFSD2A rs12072037 (AA) had higher TG level than control subjects. T2DM subjects with CD36 rs1049673 (CG, GG), CD36 rs1054516 (CT), CD36 rs2151916 (TT, CT), SCARB1 rs5888 (GG), MFSD2A rs12083239 (GG, CG), MFSD2A rs4233508 (TT), and MFSD2A rs12072037 (CA, AA) had lower HDL-C level than control subjects. T2DM subjects with MFSD2A rs12072037 (AA) had lower LDL-C level than control subjects. In dominant model, major genotype (GG) of SCARB1 gene was associated with the risk of T2DM (OR = 0.636, P = 0.032). Conclusion The genetic polymorphism of CD36 (rs1049673, rs1054516, rs2151916), SCARB1 (rs5888), and MFSD2A (rs12083239, rs4233508, rs12072037) were associated with serum lipids in T2DM subjects. The SCARB1 rs5888 major genotype (GG) was a protective factor for T2DM. Large scale cohort study is required to determine the relationship between lipid metabolism-related gene polymorphism, serum lipid profile and T2DM in aging subjects.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is caused by diverse environmental and genetic risk factors. Previous studies have reported that cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a promising gene for T2DM. Therefore, we aimed to determine the effects of CYP7A1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms on T2DM susceptibility among the Chinese Han population. Methods A case-control study was conducted to assess the potential relationship of four polymorphisms (rs8192879, rs12542233, rs2070672 and rs2515641) with T2DM susceptibility in the Chinese population, involving 512 T2DM patients and 515 age- and gender-matched healthy individuals. We used the Agena MassARRAY platform to detect CYP7A1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms. The relationship between genetic polymorphisms and T2DM risk was evaluated using odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in various genetic models. Results After adjusting for age and gender, rs12542233 in the CYP7A1 gene was significantly associated with decreased T2DM risk (recessive: OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.49–0.91, p = 0.012; after FDR correction, p = 0.048). The CYP7A1 rs12542233 was associated with a reduced risk of T2DM in people over 59 years of age (p = 0.010). In the population with BMI ≤ 24 kg/m2, CYP7A1 rs12542233 was associated with an increased risk of T2DM (p < 0.05). In the population with BMI > 24 kg/m2, CYP2E1 rs2515641 can significantly reduce the risk of T2DM (p < 0.05). And rs8192879, rs2070672 and rs2515641 could significantly increase the risk of diabetes retinopathy in T2DM patients (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the Trs8192879Crs12542233 haplotype was significantly associated with T2DM (p = 0.019). Conclusion CYP7A1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms may contribute to T2DM susceptibility in the Chinese Han population, especially in stratified analysis.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex heterogeneous disease resulting from the environment and genetic interactions. Lately, genetic association studies have shown that polymorphisms in long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with T2DM susceptibility. This preliminary study is aimed at investigating if HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) polymorphisms contribute to T2DM development. Five hundred clinically diagnosed T2DM cases and 500 healthy controls were recruited from the southeast Iranian population. Genomic DNA was isolated from nucleated blood cells and genotyped for MspI (C/T) (rs920778) and AluI (A/G) (rs4759314) polymorphisms using the PCR-RFLP technique. For genotyping rs12826786 C/T and rs1899663 G/T variants, ARMS-PCR method was applied. Our findings indicated that HOTAIR rs920778 C/T, rs12826786 C/T, and rs4759314 A/G polymorphisms have a significant positive association with T2DM, while a negative association was observed between rs1899663 G/T T2DM susceptibility. Significant associations were also observed between rs920778 C/T and HDL-C as well as s4759314 A/G and both FBS and LDL-C in T2DM patients. Haplotype analysis indicated that the CGCG, CTTG, TGTA, and TTTG haplotypes of rs920778/rs1899663/rs12826786/rs4759314 significantly enhanced T2DM risk by 1.47, 1.96, 2.81, and 4.80 folds, respectively. No strong linkage disequilibrium was found between the four HOTAIR SNPs. We firstly reported that HOTAIR rs1899663 G/T, rs12826786 C/T, rs4759314 A/G, and rs920778 C/T polymorphisms might influence T2DM susceptibility by modulating different signaling pathways and could be regarded as potential prognostic markers in T2DM patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the association between two polymorphisms of microRNA-143 (miR-143) and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the northern Chinese Han population. STUDY DESIGN This case-control study involved 326 patients with T2DM and 342 healthy controls. Two genetic variants (rs4705342 and rs353292) of miR-143 were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction/ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR) method. The levels of miR-143 in the serum from 52 T2DM patients and 55 healthy subjects were investigated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). RESULTS The CC genotype frequency of rs4705342 was significantly higher in the T2DM patients than in the healthy controls (P = 0.012). After adjusting for sex, age, and body mass index, the rs4705342 CC genotype was also related to a significantly increased risk of T2DM compared with the TT genotype (adjusted OR: 1.87; 95% CI = 1.09-3.19; P = 0.022). Stratified analyses demonstrated that T2DM patients with the rs4705342 CC genotype had significantly higher levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose (FBG), and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1C) than those carrying the rs4705342 TT genotype. The qRT-PCR results showed that the expression levels of miR-143 were significantly higher in the serum of cases than in the serum of controls (P < 0.001). Furthermore, the levels of miR-143 were significantly higher in the serum of T2DM patients carrying the rs4705342 CC genotype than in those carrying the TC and TT genotypes of rs4705342 (P = 0.005 and 0.003, respectively). CONCLUSION The CC genotype of rs4705342 might be a risk factor for developing T2DM by increasing the expression of miRNA-143 in the northern Chinese Han population.

Abstract
Objective: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect worldwide and is caused by both genetic and environmental factors. The microRNA (miR)-143/145 cluster is involved in various biological processes related to cardiovascular development. The functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4705343 of miR-143/145 may influence the expression of these miRNAs. In this study, we aimed to estimate the association between miR-143/145 rs4705343 and the risk of CHD in a Chinese Tibetan population. Methods: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry assays were performed to genotype the miRNA-143/145 rs4705343 SNP in 510 CHD Tibetan patients and 681 unrelated Tibetan healthy controls. The associations between the SNP frequencies and the CHD risk were analyzed by χ2 test/Fisher's test and assessed by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Results: We successfully genotyped 1165 subjects with a SNP call rate of 97.8%. Under the allelic model we found that rs4705343 was not associated with the risk of CHD (p = 0.082), but under the recessive model the CC genotype at this locus was associated with a significantly increased risk of CHD compared with the other genotypes (CC vs TT+TC: OR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.08-2.37, p = 0.017). Conclusion: The present study suggests that the rs4705343 CC genotype of miR-143/145 is associated with CHD risk in a Chinese Tibetan population.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to identify potential biomarkers of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occurrence/recurrence and obesity, along with the molecular mechanisms that involve these biomarkers. METHODS Three microarray data sets, namely GSE18897, GSE25097, and GSE36376 (genetic suppressor elements associated with obesity, tumor, and recurrence, respectively), were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database to be investigated for their expression as differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in HCC and obesity. The functional and pathway enrichment analysis of these DEGs were identified by the Database for Annotation Visualization and Integrated Discovery. The protein-protein interaction network analysis was performed with STRING online tool and Cytoscape software. RESULTS One hundred sixty common DEGs were screened. We found that these genes were associated with certain pathways such as metabolic pathways, terpenoid backbone biosynthesis, and adipocytokine signaling pathway. The involvements of 10 genes, including RPS16, RPS7, CCT3, HNRNPA2B1, EIF4G1, PSMC4, NHP2, EGR1, FDPS, and MCM4, were identified in the subnetwork. HNRNPA2B1 and RPS7 in the GSE18897 data set, RPS16, RPS7, CCT3, HNRNPA2B1, PSMC4, NHP2, FDPS, and MCM4 in the GSE25097 data set, and RPS16, RPS7, CCT3, HNRNPA2B1, EIF4G1, PSMC4, NHP2, FDPS, and MCM4 in the GSE36376 data set exhibited positive fold changes. CONCLUSION These DEGs and pathways could be of diagnostic value as potential biomarkers involved in the pathogenesis of HCC, pertaining to both obesity and HCC occurrence/recurrence.

Abstract
Background MicroRNAs may be important regulators of risk for type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this longitudinal observational study was to assess whether circulating microRNAs predicted improvements in fasting blood glucose, a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes, over 12 months. Methods The study included participants (n = 82) from a previously completed trial that tested the effect of restorative yoga on individuals with prediabetes. Circulating microRNAs were measured using a flow cytometry miRNA assay. Linear models were used to determine the optimal sets of microRNA predictors overall and by intervention group. Results Subsets of microRNAs were significant predictors of final fasting blood glucose after 12-months (R2 = 0.754, p < 0.001) and changes in fasting blood glucose over 12-months (R2 = 0.731, p < 0.001). Three microRNAs (let-7c, miR-363, miR-374b) were significant for the control group only, however there was no significant interaction by intervention group. Conclusions Circulating microRNAs are significant predictors of fasting blood glucose in individuals with prediabetes. Among the identified microRNAs, several have previously been associated with risk for type 2 diabetes. This is one of the first studies to use a longitudinal design to assess whether microRNAs predict changes in fasting blood glucose over time. Further exploration of the function of the microRNAs included in these models may provide new insights about the complex etiology of type 2 diabetes and responses to behavioral risk reduction interventions. Trial registration This study was a secondary analysis of a previously completed clinical trial that is registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01024816) on December 3, 2009. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s40364-021-00317-5.
